  • A Return To Civility: 9 Do Not Lie Series

    Contributed by Denn Guptill on Aug 24, 2024
     | 739 views

    lies, distortion, exaggeration. They are all they same. This message looks at why we lie and the damage those lies can cause to others and to us.

    I think that if we were honest today, we’d all agree that there is a feeling of violation that happens when we feel that we have been deceived. Most relationships can take almost anything except deceit. It was Friedrich Nietzsche who said, “I'm not upset that you lied to me, I'm upset ...read more

  • The Challenge And The Call Series

    Contributed by Denn Guptill on Nov 1, 2025
     | 252 views

    The Rich Young Ruler is the only person we see in the New Testament who was invited to follow Jesus who walked away. This message takes a deeper dive into the story of the Rich Young Ruler

    I remember when I used to answer every call that came in on our telephone with a sense of excitement and anticipation. In the days before caller ID, spam calls, and scam offers, answering the phone was always a bit of a mystery. You never knew who might be calling. And of course, you always hoped ...read more

  • Martha's Lament

    Contributed by Denn Guptill on Sep 13, 2025
     | 398 views

    Martha felt free to speak the words of disappointment and anger that we sometimes feel but are hesitant to speak. This message examines Martha's words as a model for biblical lament.

    She was frustrated, disappointed and angry. And she wasn’t holding it back. Her brother had been sick, and as his condition continued to deteriorate, Martha and her sister Mary had sent a message to their friend Jesus. In a situation, which seemed to have no hope, Jesus provided hope. They had ...read more

  • A Call To The Market Place Series

    Contributed by Denn Guptill on Sep 27, 2025
     | 350 views

    When we think of a call, we often think of a full-time vocation. This message looks at what it means to be called to the Marketplace.

    When you hear that someone has been called to something or has answered a call on their life, who do you think of? A preacher? A missionary? Maybe a doctor, a nurse or a teacher. There seem to be certain professions that we feel particular folks are called to. For many people, a call means that ...read more

  • The Reality Of Joy

    Contributed by Denn Guptill on May 28, 2023
     | 1,933 views

    What is Biblical Joy? Throughout the New Testament, we are encouraged to be joyful and to rejoice. But does that mean that we always have to be happy?

    The question that Paul seems to be trying to answer for most of this passage of scripture is, how Jewish do you have to be to be a Christian? It was the question of whether or not Christians had to follow all of the Jewish regulations and guidelines was an ongoing debate throughout the New ...read more

     | 922 views

    In Colossians chapter 3, Paul tells us that there isn't a multitude of choices to be made, there are only two. Will your take off the old and put on the new. Or won't you

    Colossians Your Choice I have a confession to make. I have way too many shirts. I don’t know what it is, but I have a closet full of shirts. Now before you judge me about being fiscally irresponsible, I’m also a Frenchie’s shopper. For years, when I was at my heaviest, I found it difficult to find ...read more

  • A Return To Civility: Intro Series

    Contributed by Denn Guptill on Jun 23, 2024
     | 1,696 views

    I noticed that as a society we've seemed to have lost our Civility, we no longer show one another respect. Could that be because we've lost our common morality? This is a new look at the 10 Commandments

    Earlier this year I was struck by how uncivil our society has become. I can’t remember if it was a personal encounter with someone or something I saw on the news or read on social media. But I do remember thinking: Why can’t we just be civil to each other, what can’t we just be nice? It seems that ...read more

  • A Return To Civility: 2 Creat No Idols Series

     | 836 views

    This message focus on the second commandment as we look at the loss of a mutual morality in today's society.

    A couple of weeks ago we began our series “A Return to Civility” and I mentioned how earlier this year I had speculated on what I saw as a loss of civility in our society. We’ve come to a place where we can no longer agree to disagree, and we’ve stopped treating one another with respect, at least ...read more

  • A Return To Civility: 3 Respect God's Name Series

    Contributed by Denn Guptill on Jul 14, 2024
     | 792 views

    In today's world God's name is used as a curse and an exclamation point, this message looks at how we are to use it and not use it.

    Recently I was reading an article written by a friend of mine, Mike McNeil. Mike and I are from the same home church, and he taught at Kingswood University for forty years before taking a teaching position with Kings Church in Saint John. Mike writes a column called Soul Apologetics, and this week ...read more

  • A Return To Civility: 4 Keep The Sabbath Series

    Contributed by Denn Guptill on Jul 20, 2024
     | 930 views

    In this crazy world, where it's rush, rush, rush, the idea of a day set apart for rest and reflection seems almost impossible. But, is it?

    What a crazy world we live in today. Do you ever feel like the Rabbit in “Alice in Wonderland”? You know the one, he’s always rushing this way and that looking at his watch and muttering, “I’m late, I’m late”. It seems that every hour of every day is filled to the limit with things that need ...read more

  • A Return To Civility: 6 Do Not Murder Series

    Contributed by Denn Guptill on Jul 27, 2024
     | 852 views

    This message looks at the 6th commandment, Do not Murder. It seems like an easy one to keep, but what happens when we broaden it out?

    A Sunday school teacher was discussing the Ten Commandments with her five and six-year-olds. After explaining the commandment to "honour thy father and thy mother," she asked, "Is there a commandment that teaches us how to treat our brothers and sisters?" Without missing a beat, ...read more

  • Therefore: Do Good Series

    Contributed by Denn Guptill on Oct 7, 2023
     | 2,492 views

    This is the first in the series where we look at the old adage, whenever you see a Therefore, you need to go back and see what it's there for.

    It’s one of those things that preachers say. It is kind of like, “After the but comes the truth,” or “I’m almost finished.” I’m pretty sure if you’ve been in church for any length of time that you’ve heard this particular phrase, perhaps you’ve even said it yourself from time to time, and it is ...read more

     | 2,579 views

    As we continue our therefore series, we take a look at Hebrews 12, and how we are the run our race.

    Part of my misspent youth was spent hanging around Racehorses and those who bet on horse races. I’ve mentioned before that my sister and I both had horses when we were teenagers, and when we lived in Hammond River, just outside of Saint John, New Brunswick, we boarded them at a farm that provided ...read more

     | 2,425 views

    We are told that we are given everything we need to lead a godly life, but what does that mean?

    Therefore 2 Peter 1 When I was at university, one of the courses I had to take was homiletics, which is simply defined as the art of preaching or writing sermons. The goal of the class was to teach us to do both things: how to write sermons and how to preach sermons. My professor was a former ...read more

  • Taking Christ Out Of Christmas

    Contributed by Denn Guptill on Dec 2, 2023
     | 2,153 views

    If Christmas has become a "cultural" holiday, This message looks at what happens when we try and take out all of the religious elements.

    Have you noticed that every year, people seem more intent on secularizing Christmas? They wish you a “Happy Holiday” or “Seasons Greetings” and then have presentations at school that make no mention of the Manger or the Wise Men, let alone the Christ Child. Now, I may be a little overly sensitive, ...read more
